Now for background and hints:The Greenhouse Gallery exhibits the works of up-and-coming and established artists who work with culinary themes. Providing artists with a space to show their work not only enhances the overall ambience of the room during events, it’s also in keeping withthe Foundation’s mission to celebrate, preserve, and nurture America’s culinary heritage and diversity. Past exhibits have featured mouthwatering food photography, romantic watercolors of mealtime still lifes, and exuberant mixed-media collages.

THE PRIZE!

is this watercolor if you can come up with a catchy, witty title for the show that incorporates food and Paris. The people at the Beard House are foodies in the food biz and they probably love Paris (who doesn't?)

How can I catch their attention?

I'm tossing the ball in your park.Here are some of the crumby titles I came up with:

I managed an art gallery in Santa Fe many years ago and based on my experience there I would suggest to you with confidence that you should begin to market your name as well as your art. So perhaps something like: “Les Façades de Paris par Gillott” or “Les Scènes de Paris par Gillott.”

Hello, I wanted to let you know that I love receiving your blog pics. My family and I just moved to Toulouse, France this past summer and are loving our french experience. I am going to have to get the book you referred to.

Thanks solely to you, I have tried my first Macarons-and love them. They are amazing or terrible if you eat one from IKEA for some unexplainable reason.

I have an idea for your show, what about Patisserie, Pets & Pate ( I do not know how to do the circumflex or accent yet on my computer!)

BONJOUR TITLE CONTESTI love "Paris Breakfasts" and every morning it helps me start my day with a taste of France.I never travel (I only wish I could) and you help take me there. I have always loved anything French and I would be so honored to have any work that you have done. It would be an inspiration to me, just like your articles are.I don't speak French, so I rely on my little French translation book. Forgive any mistakes that I make in attempting to say it in French.

Bonjour, I've just started learning French and happened to know your PB. I've enjoyed reading your PB every morning!I love macarons and tried to bake them at home, but it's very hard! I wish I could try all of them in PB! Anyway, I came up the title.

I love your site! It is like a little daily trip to Paris! (And when you live in the mountains of Southern Oregon you need that.)

For your exhibit title you have probably thought of something as simple as “Bonjour Paris!”like your daily sign offs or how about a double kiss for Paris, like“Bisoux Paris!” I don’t know if that has hidden meanings, my French is not that great.

I get your email and pass it on to my daughter in college and we both enjoy your adventures and dream about doing many of them ourselves some day. Congratulations on your well earned success. I envy you your painting and drawing skill and your sheer pluck!
